Our Verdict

Razer Cynosa Chroma

EVGA Z12

The EVGA Z12 and the Razer Cynosa Chroma are both very good gaming keyboards with non-mechanical switches. The rubber dome switches on the EVGA are lighter to press and have a shorter pre-travel distance for a more responsive gaming experience. Typing also feels better on the EVGA as it has better ergonomics. On the other hand, the Razer has individually-lit keys, while the EVGA is limited to zone backlighting.
